Ingrid T. Katz, MD, MHS is Associate Faculty Director at Harvard Global Health Institute, and Assistant Professor in Medicine at Harvard Medical School.

Her research over the past decade has focused on the social determinants of health-seeking behavior among people living with HIV in sub-Saharan Africa, with the goal of developing sustainable, socio-behavioral interventions aimed at improving care for the most under-served.  

She is interested in areas that impact the most vulnerable populations in resource-limited settings where there are high rates of HIV, and is working to develop and pilot test an intervention to promote treatment initiation among young people who are newly diagnosed with HIV in townships around Cape Town, South Africa.
